Welcome to the orgy @ 08:05 pm

[info]goesbothways:
OOC Note: Despite the title, this thread retains the comm's slightly loose PG-13 rating. This thread is more for silliness... oh, and letting Stacy and Kerri know they missed the orgy, than it is for anything harder. Please feel free to mingle, socialize, flirt, show up in ridiculously sexy costumes, interact with people from the 'other' com, show off your fancy/skimpy clothing links, make out, snugglepile... whatever. Just keep it lighthearted and keep it silly. This is just a bit of fun.

IC:

Party time!
Someone gave Kelly some part in planning things - as such, wardrobe is strictly limited to suitable costumes for the orgy at the door, but weapons are entirely permissable. Indeed, some of the orgy presents might well be wired with explosives, so be careful if searching among the table of party favors.

There's all manner of refreshments - chocolate, chips, meat and veggie trays, bbq... as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages of all descriptions. Of course, don't necessarily trust the non-alcoholic section... the punch is almost certainly spiked, and who knows what else is, and with what.
For those willing to trust to the discretion of the house, various waiters and waitresses move about with trays of food and drinks, most of them dressed in some variant on the standard Chippendale or Playboy Bunny - though there's a selection of cabana boys and short-skirted car hops and the like as well.

There's music playing, soft enough people can talk, but still present. Anyone can change the music at any time if the current selection doesn't suit their fancy.

Likewise, the place is set up with comfy couches, love seats, overstuffed armchairs, comfy mats on the floor, piles of pillows and cushions... and then there's the private rooms.

Kelly herself is dressed in her yellow and black 'Dip Me in Honey and Throw Me to the Lesbians' t-shirt, and a pair of camouflage panties, with 'Go Commando' written in black across the butt, settled in among one of the cushion islands, waiting for the guests to start arriving.

Kang
Mongol
Apocalypse
Temujin
Black Lantern Superman
Hadelinde Zemo
Masters of Evil http://marvelnextgen.wetpaint.com/page/Masters+of+Evil

Deviants - human and monsterform -
http://marvelnextgen.wetpaint.com/page/Deviants+-+Human+Form

Gunnar - for a fight with Vincent
Alfrun in disguise as Svalin's maid.
A Titan of Myth
Asgard baddies - Frost Giants, Trolls, Dark Elves
Any Asgard people that people want to temp


3. Any moments of awesome you want to give your characters. For example if you want your character to take down a Frost Giant, please say so and we will help make it happen.

Thanks!

Truth or Dare @ 11:40 pm

[info]bullpen_misc:
Ask any of one person's characters - in your OOC voice (It's not the characters asking, in other words) - any question /you/ have about them. The characters will have to answer OR they will accept a writer challenge from you regarding a scene or a plot bunny.

For example:
You: X, have you ever done something you knew was wrong but did it anyway?
X: I refuse to answer that.
You: Okay then I want to see you in a plot involving Y and at least one rabid squirrel...

The rules:

1) Please no massively out of character or gross "dares." If you think it is out of character, let the asker know quietly. Their idea of "a nice date out," when your character doesn't date might just be coffee and conversation with an NPC - or they could lack an understanding about how you want to play the character. It's all for fun/education anyway.
2) Keep it to the PG 13 level.
3) Do not give the dares time limits (i.e. in the next plot you have to...)
4) If you want to set your own characters up for Truth or Dare, respond to this on your own thread and then list the characters you play so that we may question them. Others will respond to your post with any questions.
5) Address the questions to the characters (either "All of you:" or one specific character) so that one and others know who you are asking.
6) None of this can be used against the characters...yet. If this breeds plot bunnies - great. But if it's revealed character #1 is having issues with character #2 then character #2 did not read it here. Like the other memes or Loaded Questions, it's OOC info, but IC reactions and answers.

RP Challenge - if you dare! @ 09:54 pm

[info]goesbothways:
http://www.scribbld.com/users/goesbothways/706.html


For anyone looking for things to do, and potentially want any of mine, here's your chance.

Ok, recently, in chat, I've seen a fair amount of 'want any of mine?' 'we ought to do something', etc. from a few people. There's plots being run, but not always for the characters right on our brains, so this is an attempt to start sparking some scene ideas. Just about all of mine are fair game. I'm stealing some ideas from other comms, used for similar purposes. So, here we go -

the rules:
1. Truth or Dare: Post a scene idea as a dare. It can be in-canon, or it can be AU.  You can challenge any of mine with any of yours. I can take the dare, or turn it down, by offering an honest in character answer to any question you want to ask. If I take the dare, you can set up the scene and we'll play through it.

2. Putting the 'R' in RP: So most of the time, rp comes down to casual social or big mod-run plots. This is neither, so let's spice it up. Your dare-scene challenge must involve either A. gratuitous violence, B. gratuitous nudity (I'm willing to play out sex scenes if they make sense, or hint at them) C. gratuitous crack. - because these aren't going through moderation, they can't really change anything, no new powers, no big item acquisitions, but gratuitous hero battles or villain of the week-ish stuff should be ok. Multiple choices from A, B and C are also possible.

3. Pay it Forward: As usual, if you take this challenge and post a scene idea, you also need to put this up in one of your journals, and offer some or all of yours up for scene challenges. Now the tricky part - if I take a dare, I will temp at least one of the npcs needed, if any are. I will not require you to NPC for me, no. Instead, you must temp at least one npc in any dares you take.
And, why yes, this is an effort to get people to temp occasional npcs for others in order to encourage rp. You have an easy out in any scenes you're truly not comfortable with - you can always take 'truth', and I may, not every scene will fit my characters or my fancy... but the idea is still to encourage rp, get people doing scenes and playing with characters, whether AU or our canon, and doing the little things to help get scenes going.

List of my chars after the link. These can be done in comm, or in private journals for AU and such. Feel free to add your own link replying to this post, if you decide to take the challenge.

We Fight Crime! @ 04:28 pm

[info]butterflybullet:
Okay, time for some silliness with the 'They Fight Crime' cliche. Pick two people, either yourself and someone else, or two people you know who just have to have this done for them. Describe each of them succinctly, preferably in a somehow melodramatic fashion, and add 'They Fight Crime.'

For instance, Svalin and me:

She's the strong, somber, pregnant Viking goddess of hope. She's the styling femme fatale financier with butterfly powers and no shame. They fight crime!

Okay, so for those of you who are second (or third or whatever) generation in the super-biz, how old were you when you found out about your parents being super-types?   You can talk about how too, if you want.

I think I was... young.  Nine, ten or so.  Probably younger than I should have known.  But my parents, along with Ri's, figured we'd end up rummaging and finding some bit of evidence anyway, so they sat down and told us.  It kinda explained things like "Uncle Guy" or our friendship with the Reyes a lot better.
